 Re: The O/T thread! Old-Nail wrote: That guy that is building a kubelwagen out of a 2cv and sheet steel, shouldn't he have stress channels put in the panels? I quite like the idea but I can only imagine a lot of wobbly metal otherwise. Tony England is on here. Not sure how much of a frequent user he is though.

Re: The O/T thread! I've been following the build in his other thread but now some of the body panels are on they don't look rigid enough, (although I'm sure he will have thought of that). Can't think if Kubelwagens were actually ribbed offhand, I think so.
